Inter-House Round Up!

Last week we saw the girls in Maccabees rake in the points for Inter-House football! What will see this week with the boys? We all saw some of those teams fighting to earn points for their houses, but by the end Maccabees (or Maccabeasts - depending on how you wish to refer to them) ended up on top. Behind them were Masada then Sinai and Carmel!

For those of you who weren't able to watch the matches and cheer on your teams last week, here were the results by the end of 3 long, sweaty days of girls' football:

Day 1
Maccabees - Sinai: 2 - 0

Masada - Carmel: 1 - 0


Day 2
Sinai - Masada: 1 - 0

Maccabees - Carmel: 4 - 0

Day 3
Masada - Maccabees: 1 - 0

Sinai - Carmel: 1 - 0


Quite an interesting end, I think - it seems as though Maccabees may be living up to their name... After all, they were named after the notorious Maccabean forces which victoriously entered Jerusalem. Will they prevail in the battle for first place? Will the outcome be the same for the boys? Or will Sinai be a mountainous obstacle in their path. What about Carmel and Masada, how will they prevail?

Well, I'm not a psychic so I surely can't tell you. The only way to find out and help your teams do their best is by coming out to support! The boys' games start tomorrow, we need to hear some shouting and see some (friendly) rivalry! The Hillel sports season is on, let's make it bloody (not really)!
